Inhaltsangabe

This second volume of London Walks explores more of the capital with some of London's finest writers. Resident novelists, artists, comedians and historians observe the city around them, tapping into its history, revealing its beauty and exposing its secrets.


In all there are 25 walks around the capital, taking in everything from hospitals, churches, temples, mosques and synagogues to courts, places of execution and cemeteries. Whether you find yourself chasing mushrooms among the deer in Richmond Park, memorising a Coleridgian digression in a rural lane on Hampstead Heath, or eyeing up a Masonic vestment in a shop off Drury Lane, you should expect the unexpected.

Highlights include:

Claire Tomalin's journey to Greenwich with Samuel Pepys, dropping in on John Evelyn en route

Arthur Smith's eulogy to Balham

Frances Morgan's tour of the village community of Stoke Newington

Robert Elms's fond memories of Holborn in the 1970s

David Aaronovitch on a discovery of the canals, rivers and creeks of east London. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Founded in 1968, Time Out has grown from humble beginnings into the leading resource for anyone wanting to know what’s happening in the world’s greatest cities. Alongside our influential weeklies in London, New York, Chicago and Dubai, we publish more than 20 magazines in cities as varied as Beijing and Beirut; a range of travel books, with City Guides now joined by pocket-sized Shortlist series; and an information-packed website. The company remains proudly independent, still owned by Tony Elliott four decades after he launched Time Out London. Written by local experts, and illustrated with original photography, our books also retain their independence. No business has been featured because it has advertised, and all restaurants and bars are visited and reviewed anonymously.
